The 'Sacred' itinerary was conceived as a route to rediscover places that, in ancient and contemporary history, were chosen by local communities as sites of religious and devotional interest. Often set in unspoiled and evocative landscapes, these sites today have outgrown their mere 'religious' function: they are regarded as places for the soul, capable of arousing emotions and stimulating the spiritual and social nurturing of the community.
Picture the stone, the flowing water, the might of the ancient churches: this is a small part of what you can discover cycling through the Abbey of San Claudio, the Basilica of San Nicola, the Museum of Processional Crosses, Lotto's paintings in the Museum of Sacred Art of Mogliano (MASM). Admire the vast vineyards on the Macerata hills and find refreshment in the local mansions, where you can savor a nice glass of wine. This itinerary is perfect to appreciate the magic of silence, the peaceful sound of the wind and the scents of nature, so that you can immerse yourself into the surrounding landscape, chasing history and its legends.
